Backs: Goddard, Gibbs, Shaw, Ibbotson, Goodes, Terlich (Thurlow, Webster)
Mids: GAJ, Swan, Pendles, Griffen, JPK, Watson, Priddis, Mundy (T.Mitchell, KMart)
Rucks: Cox, Sauce (Rowe, Nicholls)
Forwards: Bartel, NicNat, Buddy, Rockliff, JJK, Staker (Mayes, Daniher)

9 trades to go, $13k in the kitty

Want to upgrade Goodes and Terlich but defenders have been inconsistent so haven't really planned who I will get. Hanley will be a straight swap at this rate but no point getting him if he doesn't find some form.

Mids I'm pretty happy with. Luxury upgrade of Mundy to Dangerfield looks likely if Mundy doesn't come back in soon

Rucks: Probably my weakest line, planning to swap Sauce to Minson in a couple of weeks when Minsons price drops

Forwards: Stevie J to come in after his suspension for Mayes

I need to make some cash but not really sure where to do it, lots of rookies who haven't made much (Thurlow grrr!) I have thought of Rowe to Grimley and Thurlow to Clisby but it only makes me ~$200k for 2 trades...
The riskier option if Mundy doesn't come back is to downgrade him for a rookie, play Mitchell for a couple of weeks, use the cash from Mundy for Minson/Stevie J/defenders and then when Mitchell has made a bit of cash bring in a final M8. I'm actually leaning towards this but we'll see...

i like the idea of starting mitchell, if you were to go with that, hutchings is a good downgrade option, this would free up 250-300k which you could then either upgrade goodes/terlich to someone like heppell/shaw and have money left over for next round, or, you could upgrade staker to someone like stevie j/roughead

so maybe
OUT: mundy, goodes/terlich
IN: hutchings, heppell/shaw

kitty: 115-190k

or

OUT: mundy, staker
IN: hutchings, stevie j/roughead

kitty: 1-13k

just a few thoughts
